So, I'm not an advocate of drunk driving or anything (though if I'm not mistaken his test results aren't back in yet), but didn't the cops say the accident was NOT his fault? Yeah it sucks that this happened, but I don't think Shia is to blame here. Just my two cents.

Soo…I agree that it's bad that he was drving drunk-duh…but the whole wreck wasn't even his fault. I don't think you should put all the blame on him. I'm confused about how they knew he was drunk. They said no tests were taken on the scene…all the witnesses say they didn't even think Shia was drunk??

What a fucking loser that guy he's got everything to be happy and of course still manage to fuck it up……and with booze and driving ??????……..great exemple for the kids that are watching your movies……U LOOSER!!!!

wasnt the accident not blamed on him, and shit happens, get over it, and who cares if it costs them a little bit of money, i'm sure they'll make up for it in the box office. cuz i kno im gonna go see transformers, i saw the last one and i got the dvd, and i'm sure all of you will pay to go see it too. Get on my level and perez go suck a donut you ugly cunt

I understand that he MIGHT have been drinking and driving but the accident was not his fault. Also it doesn't make sense that they had to push production on the file for a month just for a hand surgery.

The production companies make a shit load of money away after the move is released so who really cares.

I don't want to hear everyone giving this kid crap about the DUI situation. Unless you just do not drink alcohol not one of you can say that you have never driven when you shouldn't have. If you do not have a DUI under your belt then you just haven't been caught. Many states its .08, I guarantee you that there have been several occassions when you would have blown over. Count your lucky stars and stop throwing stones. As far as being a positive role model for kids, his job title is not "guider" or "role model" or "saint", he is an actor…give him some slack, I'm sure he is very upset about the whole situation himself - aside from that the accident wasn't his fault - hope the other driver has some good insurance, i'd hate to see how much he could sue for lost wages.

Well that's what insurance is for. Do you think the film and Shia aren't insured??? Media drama is all you're creating. Actors/films are insured by production for this type of scenario despite the implications.

Man, this is some stupid media reporting. AGAIN, the accident was NOT his fault. The other driver ran a RED LIGHT. He was NOT drunk but had consumed some alcohol. People have drinks during lunch hour and still drive back to work. Stoooopid Perez! You're making him look like a bad guy. Shit happens. The whole extra costs for production NOT HIS FAULT. Why dont you bag on the person who ran the red light?!

Yes, we expect 22 year old adults with more than two brain cells to act different. Hell, even most 13 year olds would have more sense than to drive drunk. It takes a special kind of idiot to do something so irresponsible so late in life.

But, then again, most Hollywood and rich (and, increasingly, normal people, which would explain why you think it's acceptable) children are so developmentally retarded that they don't know the word 'responsibility'. Maybe they should stop raising their children with faceless nannies and housekeepers. Oops, they don't even know how to raise a child. I guess Maria will have to continue her role as both father and mother in between picking up the laundry.

Why, why do Hollywood keep paying these idiots so much money? They usually are uneducated high schoold drop outs without a glimse of culture. He doesn't give a shit about the production, not about people who now can't earn money because of him. He can't work because was driving drunk? Fire the shit out of him. He si not worthy!

I really mean this sincerely….BUT, how do gay men have sex? Do they actually suck on each others dicks?? AND…bum F–k??? Ewwwwww!!! Just the thought of it makes me SICK!!!!! How unsanitary!!! Also…then does their butt get sloppy and they can't control their gas and bowel movements??? Hey!!! Just wondering. POOR SORRY SOULS!!!

Last i read this punk pulled out the "daddy was a drunk" card. "i cant drink just one" yadda yadda bullshit. Fuckin ass-for-mouth this guy is trying to make us all say "oooooh poor little thing, his daddy was a drunk". Fuck that. You heard me. FUCK THAT. This guy drank and drove, so fuckin what if his fuckin daddy was a fuckin drunk. FUCK THAT SHIZNIT.

Yes. Sucking dick is a very good experience for everyone involved, and butt sex is actually very clean if it's done right. It also feels good (prostate stimulation). I personally don't have any trouble controlling my bodily functions.

What a shame. I thought he was different. He's so talented, but he's just like all these other Hollyweird morons that get all this fame and fortune and screw it up in the end. He keeps this up.. say by to good movie roles… dope!

Not his fault really if the other driver ran a red light. Could have happened even if he wasn't DUI and could have happened to anyone. It's the other's driver's fault. Hope that driver has good insurance because the film company could probably sue him for damages too.

“The car crash with Shia is unexpected, but we are still filming. The movie has not shut down - there is plenty to do without Shia. The shooting is also going great - I’m having a blast making this movie! Shia will be back soon and we wish all wish him a fast recovery."

Re: Joey – Ummm. Thanks Joey. I guess. That is disgusting. Maybe you haven't had a problem YET!!! Just wait untill those poop muscles get all lax. You'll have to wear Depends. ADULT DIAPERS!!! Ha!!Ha!!! Who ya gonna blame then???

You know what, Perez? Shut the fuck up! You keep posting Shia's pic up with Idiot and referring to him as a drunk driver, when it's already being said HE WASN'T FUCKING DRUNK! And the ACCIDENT wasn't his fault! He may have previously had a DUI, but in this case it appears he was NOT at fault! Who gives a hot shit how much it costs Transformers 2?? They'll more than make it up when the movies comes out!! All these fucking people in Hollywood are overpaid and egotisical, and instead of being happy he's safe and alive, they're bitching about a fucking SCHEDULE? They make more money in one day than most hard working Americans! Am I supposed to feel bad because the poor babies have to rearrange a few days?????

If Michael Bay were pissed you'd know. It's an inconvenience, but it's manageable. Bare in mind the accident was not caused by Shia so why are you still throwing rocks? What? Did you blow a PA or something? Don't pretend you have reliable sources. Michael Bay has an excellent crew that are able to think on their feet and can handle the various bumps they may encounter. Life goes on and so does filming. RELAX!

Not that he should drink and drive but he didn't cause the accident. Not his fault. Get over it. If he wasn't drinking and was still in the accident that was caused by someone else who would be blamed for the production slowing then? DUH

thank you Reall. YES MICHAEL BAY DID SAY IT WASNT FUCKING UP PRODUCTION AND NOT COSTING IT MONEY. SO ONCE AGAIN PEREZ HAS PUT UP AN INACCURATE ARTICLE….CHECK ALL YOUR FACTS BEFORE YOU POST SHIT SERIOUSLY PEREZ….YOUR JOB ISNT THAT HARD…OH WAIT…YOU DONT EVEN DO HALF THESE POSTS SO I SHOULD COMPLAIN ABOUT THE OTHER IDIOTS WHO DO YOUR JOB.

Re: penny – You and the other stupid interns and other assistants at Endeavor and at Shia's PR firm can keep posting your lies and drivel as often as you wish, but let's get one fucking thing straight - THERE HAS BEEN NO POLICE FINDING SAYING THAT SHIA LABEOUF WAS NOT DRUNK OR NOT ON DRUGS WHEN THE ACCIDENT HAPPENED.
…
And I very specifically mention drugs, because one of the reasons that the test is taking so long is that they are obviously doing a full screen - the tests for drigs take longer than a simple blood alcohol test.
…
The one thing that has been formally announced is that the female driver of the other vehicle was given a traffic citation, because she clearly ran the red light at LaBrea and Fountain. But not even this completely exonerate LaBeouf - it only means that he does not bear PRIMARY responsibility for the collision. But if LaBeouf is found to hve been DUI (booze, drugs, or both) a good lawyer for the other side can definitely pin some of the blame on Labeouf in civil court.
…
The one good thing for LaBeouf is that he won't face criminal charges for the accident itself (which a completely separate thing from possible criminal DUI charges).
…
Those of you who are real fans, not just fake posters trying to put PR spin on this situation, should be using whatever influence you have (even if is only letters or e-mails) to get LaBeouf into AA (as a patient, not just as a relative of an alcoholic).

First of all, complete intoxication is NOT required to be "driving under the influence". Which means he could have just had a buzz. And most people who drink, can/will drive home after a couple. Whether they should or not.

I don't know if a sobriety test was done. He may have declined, which would be the reason he got arrested in the first place.

That said, he could have been DRUNK ON HIS ASS or COMPLETELY SOBER and it doesn't make a DAMN bit of difference, because the accident was NOT his fault.

I'm glad everyone is ok, and FUCK anyone who thinks movies are more important than someone's life.

you know, everything i've seen or read about shia (minus the drunk driving) suggests he's actually a really upstanding guy. i bet he's probably really embarrassed, really ashamed, and feels really frickin' awful about the whole thing. i wouldn't be surprised if a story came out later saying he paid crew for lost days out of his own pocket.

AND… besides…sounds like the accident, b/c it wasn't his fault, would have happened even if he were completely sober. so…
